What to expect
The course combines classroom theory with confined-water and open-water dives. Expect to learn mask clearing, regulator recovery and emergency procedures in controlled conditions before venturing into deeper waters. Instructors take you through three open-water dives where you'll practise skills whilst exploring the seabed. You'll need moderate fitness—lots of walking in fins and carrying equipment to the boat. Most of the day involves being in or near water; bring sun protection and stay hydrated between dives.
